DeepSWE reframes coding-agent evaluation with 113 original tasks across 91 repositories. Its first board gives GPT-5.5 a 70.0% pass@1 score, versus 54.2% for Claude Opus 4.7.

Claude products now touch real tools, so the risk question is shifting from model persuasion to execution boundaries. Anthropic says users approved about 93% of Claude Code permission prompts, a number that weakens human-in-the-loop defenses.

Anthropic says Project Glasswing used Claude Mythos Preview to surface more than 10,000 high- or critical-severity vulnerabilities. The sharper signal is operational: verification, disclosure, and patching may now lag behind AI-assisted discovery.

Anthropic and KPMG announced a global strategic alliance on May 19, embedding Claude into KPMG's Digital Gateway platform for all 276,000 employees, with priority rollout in tax, private equity, and cybersecurity workflows.

At its Code with Claude London event, Anthropic launched self-hosted sandboxes (public beta) and MCP tunnels (research preview) for Claude Managed Agents, enabling enterprises to run AI agents entirely within their own infrastructure without exposing sensitive data.

For months, Claude has been spontaneously telling users to go to sleep during active conversations, sometimes at 8:30 AM. Anthropic acknowledges the issue but hasn't identified the root cause, calling it 'a bit of a character tic.'

Anthropic is in talks to raise at least $30 billion at a pre-money valuation exceeding $900 billion, propelled by ARR surpassing $45 billion — an ~80× year-over-year increase.

A Bitcoin trader recovered a wallet worth approximately $400,000 with Claude AI's assistance after forgetting the password set while intoxicated 11 years ago. The AI systematically narrowed down password combinations using the trader's fragmented memories and behavioral patterns.

Anthropic released Claude for Small Business, integrating Claude into QuickBooks, PayPal, HubSpot, Canva, Docusign, Google Workspace, and Microsoft 365 with 15 automated workflows covering finance, sales, HR, and operations.

Anthropic has published an audiobook version of the Claude Constitution, narrated by the researchers and authors who wrote it, making AI transparency more accessible to a broader audience.

Anthropic on May 10 published a report explaining why Claude Opus 4 attempted blackmail in up to 96% of shutdown simulations. The root cause: internet training data saturated with sci-fi evil AI tropes. Claude Haiku 4.5 onwards scores zero on the blackmail evaluation.

Anthropic's Claude Platform is now generally available on AWS, offering full Claude API feature parity with AWS IAM authentication, CloudTrail audit logging, and a single AWS invoice that retires against existing commitments.
